We introduced the concept of a “New Labor Day” in my emails, the DAILY CALL. The idea is to honor work, not mob action and restrictions on individual Liberty. Here, in part is the idea:
“Let us set a new course this Labor Day, September 5, 2011—a course to fully restore every American’s right to work. Let the new course effectively encourage every able bodied man, woman and teen in America to, upon rising (six days a week), set upon a day of productive work. Let us begin today.
“To restore an America that honors productive work and the men and women who build for themselves through their honest labor. They are the makers of our country. It is all who work that help us sing, My Country ‘tis of thee, Sweet land of Liberty.
“Let this (quote from Booker T. Washington) be our new Labor Day motto:”
“What is obtained by labor will of right be the property of him by whose labor it is gained.”
It seems there were those who did not get the memo. Here is Joe Biden declaring war:
Teamster President, Jim Hoffa, seems confident, in this clip, he can stay with the Vice President in the war talk competition:
Perhaps we are Hobbits after all:
Ah well, we may have to win that war first; then declare our New Labor Day.
